Big T09/10/2010 ByTom Rashell I have been trying to get my wife to go and shoot with me but know why. One day she went with me and now she cannot wait to get her own Glock 9mm and for her first time to ever shoot a gun I would never wish to be on the wrong side. We have now been 5 or 6 times and I think sh'e getting better than me. At the very least I know sahe can take care of her self with no problem. Glock # 1 in my book!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
GLOCK 1712/26/2009 ByGlockman43 To the person who posted the "Too Jumpy" review: What, are you new? These are some of the most smooth firing pistols in the world. It is no wonder almost all LEO's (my best friend is a Seattle Police Officer and has 4 Glocks) and militaries use these! Maybe man up and do some wrist exercises Dr Michael Lim. Anyway, I am a DEDICATED Glock man and EASILY carry my G-17 concealed. Highly recommend these pistols!
G17 RTF212/07/2009 By Recently purchased the new version G17 RTF over the weekend. what I can say...it is simply the best...its aggressive looks stands out the rest..I can not wait to shoot it..
G17 (and G19)12/02/2009 ByRAF These two pistols have improved my shooting tremendously. They have no perceptible recoil "bounce" which allows me to stay on target for rapid-fire shooting. My only problem with the G17 is wrestling it away from my wife who thinks it is the most controllable handgun she's ever fired. No better firearm in my estimation when considering maintenance, accuracy and reliability. A genuine value for sure
G1711/24/2009 ByM. Terry Firstly, let me say that I AM a Glock fan. I demand flawless performance from any firearm and Glock always delivers, no questions. Let's face it, when your life depends on your choice of defensive firearm...Glock IS the best.
The G17 was the first handgun that I had ever purchased, and I do like it. That being said, there are some points that I should have considered more carefully before purchasing this pistol.
The first one being this pistol was purchased for concealed carry. Big pistol for this purpose. The grip printing like crazy is a real issue as well. Fully loaded and weighing about 2 lbs, even in an IWB holster...pretty heavy by the end of the day. Plus I like 2 extra mags on me as well...it adds up.
Next, Ive fallen in love with the .45 cal sub compact model...wish I had bought that one first...So I guess it fair to say that because there are so many models available, choose carefully and consider what uses this firearm is going to be used for. Anyone out there want

All Glocks11/22/2006 ByGerry G. Lim I have have handled every major semi-automatic handguns out there. I would say the Glock line is the finest I have ever handled. Ease of operation and maintenance. Could handle all sort s of ammunition. Easy to learn, I recommend it to my friends as a first time buyer. They are all please with the simplicity of the firearm. I have yet to meet a person who will disagree with me on this issue. Thank you very much.
